“i suppose that what i’m getting at is it’s really terrible, to be in love. you’re always waiting and you’re always hungry.” an excerpt from a poem i wrote titled small mess, which my lovely friend got a line tattooed from & i’m still !!!!!!! about literally all of the time. have any of you gotten lines from poems tattooed? or do you want to in the future? i know i do🌟

Spring 🌸 is just around the corner! i’m loving this lip gloss i got from @rmsbeauty! it’s the perfect coral/pink for spring. •• being transparent today and i’m really working on being more patient. •• “the work that god does in us while we wait, is just as important as whatever it is we are waiting for”-ben patterson

We dare you to show up this week. show up in any situation where you're otherwise tempted to hide yourself due to body anxiety or self-consciousness -- whether that's speaking up in class or a meeting, exercising in public, going to a social event, meeting new people, or sharing your talents and skills. do any or all of those things even if you're not wearing makeup or the right clothes or otherwise appearing how you think you should.
✖️this might be difficult, but facing difficult situations head-on is the starting point for developing body image resilience. you can grow stronger, gain more experience, and develop more empathy as a direct result of navigating painful experiences -- not just *in spite of* your pain, but *because of* your pain.
✖️test it for yourself. you might even be unbreakable, just like @gabby3shabby! 👊🏼👊🏽👊🏾👊🏿

“if i had a flower for every time i thought of you...i could walk through my garden forever.” // alfred tennyson 📸: @theunlikelyflorist

*******************************************
perhaps i am water’s kindred
in every way i mold myself
to become what’s desirable
for the heart i wish to claim
i could stand frozen
when exposed to the arctic winter
and melt away
in the heat
of a summer afternoon
i dance my way
in any shape
inside the receptacle
i’m poured into
if only
for a small touch of approval
while i exist inside this bottle
i could be anything
i wanted to be
my gifts after all,
are inherent as the raging sea
yet out of all the wild in the universe,
love was the only thing that wrecked me
ever so, willingly
